GETTING STARTED
4. Will they show you houses listed by other
companies?
When it comes to your dream home you don’t want to
be limited to one company or group, just because an
estate agent is partial to their listings.
5. Are they familiar with the area you want to
purchase in?
An estate agent who is familiar with your area will
know which houses are close to schools if you have
children, or close to transport if you have to use
public transport.
6. What’s their business style?
Do you want a broker who phones you daily or weekly
or e-mails you? How do they plan on keeping you
updated on the new listings and prospects for your
new home?
As you start your journey towards buying a property
it is imperative you have the best team helping you
achieve your goals. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, at
the end of the day it’s your decision and you need to be
comfortable with the people working with you.
